GAY CONTENT EXCLUSIVE TO NETFLIX
Netflix leads the way with the long-awaited Ryan Murphy version of the Matt Crowley-stage play, one of the first “proper” gay films made and a leader in that field in 1970, The Boys in the Band. The Exorcist’s William Friedkin bravely directed this ground-breaking film stating: “Today’ is Harold’s Birthday…” posing a picture of a handsome young man next to him exclaiming: “and this is his present…”
It was recently turned into a stage play in New York when it was revived, but was untimely halted due to the Covid pandemic. Now Murphy is giving his special elaborate, flamboyant and ultra-camp touch to this classic story of a group of over the top, but also serious gay men who get together for a party
